escape rope, catcher and shiftry's whirlwind to alternate opponent's pokemons
strong breeze and giant fan to "clean" the opponent's pokemons in play
devolution spray to make countinues giant fan and sableye to recover catchers, ropes, sprays, etc...

Edited to coincide with the rules! :D ~Kecleon
 
Why Colress if you're shuffling your opponent's Pokemon back into their decks? I would max out on the other Supporters.
 
Hi energyfullart(?',

Nice deck idea. Not sure if it works. I would alter the trainers a little and focus more on Shiftry. Below is a first draft.

Trainers 32
  • 1 Dowsing Maschine
  • 4 Professor Juniper
  • 4 Devolution Spray
  • 3 Evolution Soda
  • 2 Item Scrapper
  • 3 Escape Rope
  • 3 Rare Candy
  • 4 Level Ball
  • 4 Skyla
  • 4 N

I removed the Pokémon Catcher since it requires a coin flip and is not reliable enough. Hope this provides some help.
 
I think this would be a great deck against a Snorlax (Team Plasma) deck.

But, why Colress? If there is just 1,2,3,4 benched Pokémon it would be a waste of trainer. About the energies, just 6 Dark energies is bad, let's say that you have the 4 evolved Shiftry in play, 1 would be unusable (2 [Energies of shiftry] x 4 = 8) and imagine the sableyes. About catchers... no, simply no... I don't trust in them and it's like suicide.

-2 Colress
-3 Pokémon Catchers
-1 Level Ball (many of those)
That leaves us with 6 cards out
+6 Dark energies, you still need more to be able to play all of the pokémons, but I'm sure you won't use all of them.

A good strategy would be to deck out or leave the opponent with no pokémon in play (leave no prisoners [?]).

Just my point of view. :D
